You cannot upload an image until you have been a member for at least 4 days. If your upload is tagged with {{nld}}, {{bfu}}, or {{nfur}}, please read the template message as it explains the violation of our media policy. Please be sure to provide the required {{information}}: a license tag and source citation are always required; fair use images require a {{fair use rationale}}. Get help in the user assistance room.
Please make sure you follow our naming policy - modules should be named like Book Title/Chapter Title.

If something you wrote was deleted, please read the deletion policy, and check the deletion log to find out why. Also check the VFD archives if applicable. You can request undeletion at WB:VFU, or ask the administrator who deleted the page.

This message box is using an invalid "type=warning" parameter and needs fixing.
Note that although SOME content on Flickr is licensed under Creative Commons, not all of it is. Even if there is a CC license you must provide the source and the author - you cannot publish this on WB as "self published" unless you created the image yourself. If you can update the images with the URL where you got it from then that will suffice. Thanks Unusual? QuiteTalkQu21:50, 7 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Pages and files that qualify for speedy deletion can be done so by using the {{delete|<insert your reason here>}} template. Content with copyright issues as well as own work without other contributors qualifies. Hope that helped. --Swift (talk) 03:43, 8 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
